Two weeks with a LS2 Challenger F. I find the brand is true to size and shape (intermediate oval). For me, I try to buy helmets with at least three shell sizes as it’s easier to get a great fit in the smaller sizes. Overall, happy with the purchase. Venting is good, noise level is OK, drop down visor sits low to the breath guard, and it came with a Pinlock.

Side case addition project is now complete.

I often leave it in B mode (especially in the rain). The difference is certainly there compared to the other modes but I don’t find this to be a problem based on how I ride.

Bit different on my end! 5’8, 190 lbs, 28.5” inseam. No fitment or discomfort issues but I do have to manage the bike by putting one foot down. I was toying with lowering it but may give it another go this season as stock. I forgot to mention I bought it with a Givi (D2139S) screen already fitted. It all works for me just fine.

Hi, all. @kyle J, I picked up a 2019 Tracer 900 after a couple of seasons on a FZ07 and have been pleased. I was fortunate enough to find a super low km, like new grey and red model and decided to go for it. We ride locally for the most part but fit in a longer trip each season (3500km). I’ve been happy with my decision but know my next bike will have cruise control. So far, the only mods done are a rad guard and with help from the great folks on this forum, colour matched OEM side cases. Overall, it’s been a super bike for returning to the sport. Good luck with your decision!

Hello, all. I have the factory side case arms attached to my bike and although I understand I’ll be OK running city side cases without the bits that connect under the bike, I may still look at fabricating some kind of brace. I know the whole kit is available online, I don’t really want to buy what I don’t need. (Sometimes, I just can’t help myself!) Before I do, thought I’d check with the forum community to see if anyone has the parts in the attached picture available. I’d be happy to buy and of course, pay the shipping. Thanks!

Hi, all. Bump and price reduced to $200 Cdn. plus shipping.

Our group is like a mixed bag of nuts…Goldwing, R1250 RT, Ninja 1000SX, my Tracer, and a Can Am Spyder RT. Fuel stops are almost always made based on the Ninja’s schedule. I’m glad it’s no longer me on my FZ07.

Thanks, @Heli ATP. PM sent.

Thanks @RaYzerman. I have two that worked and ended up filing three. Just unsure if that's enough to not worry about.

Hi, all. I recently rekeyed a set of OEM city cases to my ignition key by swapping and filing the tumbler wafers. I think though, I’m going to buy a lockset kit so that all five wafers function as they should. Before ordering, I thought I’d check with the forum community to see if anyone has leftovers from a previous project they would like to sell as I see each bag of numbered wafers has several in them. With 70cm of snow here on the east coast of Canada within the last 48 hours, I’m in need of a project! Thanks.

Hello, forum friends. Having two sets of side cases to look at all winter wasn’t the plan! Bump with a price drop to $250 plus shipping. Thanks.

Hi, all. Thanks @jthayer09 @bwringer. That worked. Hope it’s the same for others.

Thought I would take a moment and refresh this. The pictures show both on and off the bike. I routed both velcro straps under the seats for a tidy install. Thanks!

Same here @Heavy.
